Third Day In Point Pleasure

Chapter 20: Third Day In Point Pleasure 

The next morning, Gray woke up in his motel's room. 

Alone. 

When he opened his eyes, he remembered everything that happened last night. The moth stone. The cave. The moth claws. The creature constructed of rock. The escape in the woods. He sat down on the edge of the bed in the motel's bedroom and pondered on all the chaos he had to go through ever since he set foot in Point Pleasure. To what end? What was he getting all of this? He was still figuring it out.

What a fucked up situation… What am I supposed to do? 

Ring! Ring! 

The phone suddenly rang in the motel's bedroom. 

The phone is ringing. It could be Miss. Ravana… He thought. And so, because of this, he hurried himself to the phone, despite the fact that he was still awkwardly sloppy and felt like a puddle of jelly after he woke up. He struggled his way to the bedside table. He picked up the phone and shoved it against his ear. Answering the phone.

"Hello?" he said, half-whispering, half-actually-speaking.

"..." No one answered on the other side of the line at first. 

"Hello?" the young man repeated. But this time, he heard something, he heard something on the other side: It was some kind of noise. It was like electricity, almost. Electricity traveling and circulating. He should have hung up the phone at this point. He should have hung up the phone a long time ago, but he didn't. Then, through the loud noise, he was able to make out something. He was able to make out certain words: 'Don't Stay With Her…' 

Then, the call ended. It was over. He couldn't believe it.

Later, Miss. Ravana was back to work. Her yoga class was back. Running again. Everything was in place. She currently wore a skin-tight tank top. A dark gray tank top with black, sexy, yoga pants. There were red stripes on each side of her pants. She also wore black socks. There was a group of eleven young men. Eleven horny, young men as part of the class. Watching her. Admiring her teaching them. 

"So, it's really important for you to find your inner energy!" she instructed them as she showed them the position they all had to learn and imitate. The current position showed her stretching her back and looking like a snake almost. Her big tits, especially her cleavage, her boob-crack was directly visible to all the students. The students attempted to mimic her, but didn't do such a good job at it. Exactly as it was often the case here, the young students spent more often watching her and drooling over her than actually paying attention to what she had to teach, even if what she had to teach was interesting and useful. Most of them were erect at this moment. 

"Are you following me?" Ravana asked them to make sure. 

"Yes, ma'am!" a couple of them shouted in response. 

"Good," this made her smile. But then, as she had a good view at the one of the large and wide windows at the end of the room, she was able to see outside. She was at the small town of Point Pleasure on the horizon. There were gray clouds in the sky.

I don't know why, but I feel like there is something coming… Miss. Ravana thought before eventually going back to teaching.

***

Alone, Gray went back to the area where he was brought to by Miss. Ravana last night. This time, he went there during the middle of the day. When it felt much safer. He saw the road. He saw the field. He saw the crater. He saw the entrance of the cave. During the day, he noticed a wooden sign, on which it was written: 'The TNT Area'. Something that he hadn't noticed last night when he 'trespassed' on this location. He scouted the area. Looking for clues that perhaps could feed him more information. Something that Miss. Ravana didn't give him too much. He was wrestling to figure out this mystery. Why did his dreams bring him here in Point Pleasure? Why the creature in the cave? Why this noise and this voice over the phone this morning? Why? There were so many questions filling his mind. 

There must be something that we missed yesterday. Why would I be told not to stay with her? It wasn't like we did something wrong together. And it wasn't like I even stayed with her overnight. Perhaps there is something else to uncover in that cave… He thought as he slowly made his way closer to the crater and therefore the entrance of that cave he visited last night in company of Miss. Ravana. However, right before he could make it any closer to the crater, the young man was suddenly knocked out of his feet by an unseen force. Gray fell down onto his back and then looked up: It was the same creature as last night. This time, it was out of the cave. The five broken pieces had been reassembled together, but Gray could see the cracks. That thing was barely holding together at this point.

"You, again?" he shouted. The creature tried finishing him off right away as he was on his back, but Gray was swift enough to be able to move out of the way just in time. Then, he stood up again, and by chance, he still had the moth stone with him. The rock glowed red again, and the moth claws were reforged, replacing his right hand. The monster rushed at him as soon as the moth claws appeared. Gray had something, so he could defend himself again. This time, he had no one else to protect than himself. Which was something good in or itself, but that also meant if he failed in this battle, he didn't have Miss. Ravana to help him out. 

The creature attempted to knock him off of his feet again, but Gray successfully blocked his attack at the last second, using the moth claws.

"What is the problem with you?" he asked the rock monster.
